The third of the drawing tests using the characters from @therealandian's ReDeath / Search Through The Stars AU! If you haven't guessed already, it's Martin Blackwood, long-time Mechanism, survivor of Yog-Sothoth and long-lost protector/love interest of Jonathan Sims! Thanks to Andian themselves for clearing up his eye colour for me; originally, I was going to make it brown with like a slight bluish tint in order to reflect his time in Yog-Sothoth, but then I realized it probably would have been mentioned in the fic if he had heterochromia, so I abandoned the idea. I exchanged it for an unnatural vibrancy to his eyes, which wouldn't be as noticeable to others and is still kinda not mentioned but we take creative liberties when the idea is too exciting. I honestly love Martin's characterization in the fics, it makes his more Web-like ties a bit more... there? Like don't get me wrong they are, but it feels more tangible when you throw in a few centuries or so of age and experience to strengthen them. You know the drill; The Eye wants more. Have fun guessing who is next... or more, *what* is next~

Remember that part of the fic where Martin committed brutal pipe murder ? I do.
Mechanism!Elias and Mechanism!Martin belong to @therealandian from his fic Search Through The Stars ( and I will spam you with this because you NEED TO READ IT. )

@jonmartinweek day 9: free day/ au day
I didn't really have much time but I wanted to at least finish the entire week so...welp, have some Mechs! Jon ft. Mechs Fan Martin
The day i don't include at least a hint of mechs Jon is the day I've been replaced by the Not-them
I had a very specific vision of Jon coming in to work in full out Mechs gear and Martin immediately enters gay panic mode the first time he sees it
Meanwhile the entire archives crew is wondering why their boss dressed up as a steampunk space pirate to work

Jon's past comes back to haunt him when the Spotify wrapped comes out:
Tim: Right then gang! Who was everyone's top artist on their Spotify wrapped?
Jon: Tim, I don't think this is of any importance
Tim: Sure it is, boss! I for example had Chappell Roan as my number 1, I was even in the top 0.05% of listeners!
Sasha: Yea, that isn't surprising, you played hot to go on repeat whenever there was a statement about fire
Tim: What can I say, it's a banger!
Tim: Anyway, what about you Sasha?
Sasha: you are talking to one of the top 0.1% of listeners for The Cardigans
Martin: Ooh I love them! I got The Crane Wives, their songs are just so calming and relaxing
Tim: Oh yea, I've seen a few cool animations to their songs! That definitely aren't from a Minecraft series or anything
Sasha: Don't lie Tim, I know you cry every time you see a cactus
Tim: WE ARE GETTING OFF TRACK!
Tim: Who did you get Jon?
Jon: I don't really listen to music, too distracting
Tim: Oh rubbish. Cmon, lets see!
*he goes to grab Jon's phone*
Jon: No Tim, don't-
*Sasha grabs it when he's distracted*
Sasha: Got it!
Tim: Oooh, lemme see, lemme see!
Sasha: It's some band called "The Mechanisms"?
Jon: Oh no, this can't be happening
Martin: *googles them*
*see's Jon in full the full Jonny D'ville getup*
Martin: Oh
Sahsa: My
Tim: God
Sasha: YOU WERE IN A BAND!?!?
Tim: A STEAMPUNK SCI-FI PIRATE BAND?!?
Jon:
Jon: Right, I'm going to light the archives on fire
#I’ve not listened to the cardigans but I asked ppl who Sasha would listen to and one of my friends said it would be them#I started writing this while I was supposed to be working on a lab report#but then I got this idea and my brain was like “WRITE JON GETTING BULLIED!”#he listens to the mechs for nostalgia#he misses those days#he mainly listens to songs that the others sang#not so much his own songs#the mechanisms were Jon's uni band#and yes ik thats more of an ao3 tag but still#funny#meme#funny meme#tma#the magnus archives#tma memes#tma incorrect quotes#the magnus archives incorrect quotes#jonathan sims#martin blackwood#timothy stoker#sasha james#third life#trafficblr#mcyt#incorrect quotes

do you ever think about, what if drumbot brian and martin blackwood met (or are you normal)? they would get along together, surely, but what do you think they would have to say about one surrendering into the void, the loneliness, to complete the cycle, dies alone, willingly. and the other, while still suffering the effects of loneliness, finds someone to find him, to save him, and someone to die with. im fine

Does Jonny D'Ville ever properly flirt with Martin or is he just into fun, violence, adventure, violence... violence
If he does how does Marto take it
Being that the two have been in this universe awhile, Martin's gotten pretty used to being hit on and basically ignores it. Jon has not... and is testy about it.

so what about one of those "jon was in the mechanisms in college and martin is currently a huge fan" jmart fics except we have an alternative/punk martin and for whatever's reason wore his battle vest/jacket to the archives and jon is so close to reprimanding martin for "inappropriate workplace attire" (the hypocrite) but then he sees the extremely detailed and lovingly hand-made mechanisms backpatch as the vest's centerpiece and he just,,, freezes and walks back to his office.
#i MAY write this actually at some point#but no guarantees bc i have so many tma wips and absolutely zero are posted rn#am i projecting onto martin??? absolutely#don't worry i have a warrant *hands you a paper with “I'm a martin kinnie” written in green glitter ink*#ugh i meant permit ??#anyway#tma#the magnus archives#the mechanisms#jmart#jonmartin#for later#punk's not dead it's just a little chilly
